Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Didn’t You Fight Back at the Time?_1Xia Bowen remained silent.
Relying on Shangguan Yunqi was less dependable than conducting an investigation oneself.
Song Yunuan continued, "Old Master Xia, Shangguan Heng dreams of living forever and probably has already sent people to either investigate my uncle or to watch over him in Nanshan County Town."
Xia Bowen’s head began to hurt again.
He truly wanted to just let go and close his eyes, to not bother with any of it.
He felt mentally exhausted, day by day.
Shangguan Heng was relentless, and Xia Bowen had nowhere to vent his full hatred.
Xia Bowen said, "When Shangguan Heng told me he had a recording, I asked him what he wanted to do.
Shangguan Heng said that if he didn’t want Xia Xindong’s mad antics to be exposed to the world, he should not engage in any re
Xia Bowen said, "Alright, I need to look into the relevant information."
He was in a hurry. If the so-called recording were to be made public, his own days wouldn’t be easy either.
There was nothing more to be said.
Xia Bowen didn’t even ask how Xia Zhi and the other were doing.
Song Yunuan naturally wouldn’t tell him either.
After hanging up the phone, Song Yunuan’s face darkened, that bastard Shangguan Heng actually had a recording.
Oh, just thinking about it made her so angry.
Song Yunuan’s eyes shifted, and her hands clenched into fists.
It seemed she could only fight magic with magic.
-----------------
The morning was also busy with hustle and bustle.
Chu Zizhou, having finished packing, drove a jeep towards Nanshan County Town.
Xia Xindong and Song Yunuan sat in the back.
Sun Zhiqing, with the prepared exam materials, sat in the front.
Upon arriving at the school gate, Sun Zhiqing looked eagerly at Xia Xindong.
Xia Xindong’s fingers trembled, he suppressed the irritation in his heart, reached out and patted his shoulder, and said gently, "Just take the exam normally, you’ll do fine."
Then Sun Zhiqing entered the examination room with brisk steps.
Song Yunuan said to Chu Zizhou, "I’ll go with you to withdraw money, I’ll be your bodyguard."
So Chu Zizhou really let Song Yunuan and Xia Xindong accompany him to withdraw money.
The money they took out filled a canvas bag.
The three of them then went to see Old Shang.
Old Shang, upon seeing Song Yunuan, was so enthusiastic, he almost called her his dear daughter.
He readily agreed to all of Song Yunuan’s requests, which were a piece of cake for him.
But he needed to make some arrangements first.
Currently, they were preparing for a three-day joint exam, they would wait for a notification when it was time.
Then he took Song Yunuan and the others to the library and made a long-term library card especially for Xia Xindong.
Song Yunuan then hurried off to Old Mr. Ji’s home.
The Old Master told them they would leave after wrapping things up here.
But Old Master Ji was not very pleased, so Song Yunuan asked, "Grandpa Ji, what’s wrong?"
Old Mr. Ji said, "Little Nuan, you’ve been here so many times, but have you ever met your uncle?"
This mention of "uncle" stunned Song Yunuan, and only after a moment did she realize he was talking about Ji Hao and Ji Yingying’s father.
"What’s wrong with him?"
"He doesn’t want to go to Beidu. He says he is an orphan who never went to school and doesn’t have much education. He thinks that even working as a security guard in a factory would be a bother to others, and he just wants to stay home and farm."
The Old Master was angry, were they to live in different places?
Wouldn’t other people criticize him for despising the poor and loving the rich?
Song Yunuan blurted out, "Isn’t farming simple? Don’t you have a traditional Chinese medicine planting base? Just let him farm it. There doesn’t seem to be much difference between farming crops and herbs."
At that moment, Ji Xinyi came over, bringing them fruit.
Upon hearing Song Yunuan’s words, her furrowed brows relaxed instantly.
She knew her husband felt inferior; he seldom came to the county town because he felt uncomfortable.
Her own father was very strict, but actually very satisfied with him. However, her father wouldn’t express it, and her husband was reserved and reticent, so there was a big communication gap between them.
Her husband was a good person, hardworking, diligent, honest, and treated her and the children very well.
She wouldn’t abandon him.
What had been an upsetting issue was easily resolved by Song Yunuan’s few casual remarks.
Ji Xinyi knew how to speak to her husband now.
Moreover, her husband really did know how to cultivate medicinal herbs.
In this regard, Ji Hao’s father had a lot of experience.
Old Master Ji’s eyes were filled with laughter, "It’s really up to my granddaughter, what a smart little head she has."
Then he took Xia Xindong’s pulse with a smile in his eyes and said, "Xindong, I’ll mix another prescription for you, you should be basically fine after taking it for another seven days."
Xia Xindong thanked Old Master Ji.
Ji Xinyi also packed up quite a few things for them, insisting that Song Yunuan take them home.
Old Master Ji then told Song Yunuan, "I bought this house, I plan to transfer it to your name before I leave."
